Shopaholics rejoice with Citi Globeshopper

I’ve never been much of an online shopper until I became a mom. After all, when there’s not much to do in Singapore on a weekend, I’m pretty much in the malls. But my shopping days took a nose dive after the arrival of Sophie especially when I was stuck at home during my confinement. But when I got introduced to online shopping, shopping took on a whole new dimension for me.

The choices for shopping online became limitless …until I hit a wall when the site I’m trying to order from either do not accept a non-US credit card or do not ship to Singapore. Do I hear a “I hear you”? How frustrating is that!

But shopaholics you can now rejoice with Citi Globeshopper!

Last week, I was invited by CitiBank to learn more about this exclusive service specially provided for CitiBank customers.
